During filming, sabani (boats that were used in ancient Okinawa) left the coast and raised torches, and the events of the festival, along with the live event at the festival venue, were filmed.

Kimura, who faced the scene where the protagonist Ooyama Hikaru (GACKT) was searching for the heroine undercover at the festival grounds, said cheerfully「Because I come from a background of performing on stage for rhythmic gymnastics, I’m really nervous. But I’m really looking forward to it」, as she looked back on the filming.

She performed the theme song for this movie,「Ai ni Nare」. She then shared her feelings on the live event, saying「Like me, the Okinawan audience express their feelings honestly, so singing was enjoyable. With the release of the movie, I would hope that more people get to listen to it」.

2016-lug15-karanukan-entameplex-05Director Hamano Yasuhiro said,「This movie, is a story of a man who awakens to true love as he enters his 40s. Without the nature and rich culture of Okinawa, I would not be able to depict this love so, people who are tired of society should definitely watch this」, showing his confidence in the completion of the movie.
The movie『Karanukan』is scheduled for release in 2017.
